I haven't been on here for a while, and have been dealing with a lot of familiy issues (Dad was diagnosed with esophageal cancer) As you know i am in the military, and just recieved an assignment to Florida...(i may be able to drop by during OCBR and say hi)...

I have gotten more work done on my frame off, but i am in a pickle...The body is just about back on, but I am in need of a car hauler trailer to get my EB back to florida....Is there anyone in FL that has one i can borrow and return...I would have it in my possesion for about a month...I could rent it from you...or if anyone has or is selling one...I could get it on my way back in two weeks....JUst trying to look at some options here,,,

I could buy one if you know a chep place, i have only 1,000 bucks left to buy a trailer...a 6-7 foot wide 16-20 foot long would be ideal...

Thank you so much!

Have you considered a one-way U-haul rental? They've got a 6x12 that could probably carry an EB body

http://www.uhaul.com/guide/index.aspx?equipment=opentrailer-6x12
One way would run you about $300

There was one in here under utility trailers about that big for $1200 new

i checked them out but they wanted to charge me 450.00 I would rather but a trailer for twice the price and not waste 450.00 smackers

I actually looked at the one on that link, as a possibility

Hey Man,
No kidding about long time... hate to hear about your dad!! Is everything working out? Where did you get assigned to? McDill in Tampa or the one up in Pensacola? Glad to hear you are getting to move back home to FL. We can add you to the growing number of FL owners. Ssshhhh don't tell anyone but we're taking over!! Wish I could help you with a trailer but my dad and I just started today on converting a travel trailer frame into a car hauler and it won't be done for a while. I would help you out if I could. Give us a shout once you get settled in and if we can we'll hook up and go muddin FL style.

So sorry to hear about your dad. We'll keep you in our thoughts & prayers.
Would love to see you at OCBR if you can stop by but totally understand
if you don't make it.
Guess moving to Florida will put you in the running for Iron Butt next yr.!
Stay in touch and if we happen to hear of a trailer we'll let you know.

Pics coming soon, the trailer has a crank type so called winch and it doesn't have brakes on it which will cost about 100 to get put on other than that it is a very well built trailer so not sure if it's worth it or not. But still looking as well Here are the pics of 17' What do you all think it's worth?
